Breathe Better: The Side Body Class

One of my absolute favourites!

I am OBSESSED with this class! Rachel, you are incredible. As an opera singer who has now been practicing regular yoga and gaining flexibility in my chest/side body for almost a year (thanks to you, DYWM), I sometimes have trouble opening up my intercostals/ribs and getting those super deep breaths that I need for my job. This class has changed that for me. I now do this class before singing if I need to find that space... works every time! Thank you!!!

Thank you Rachel this is a wonderful class. I tend to store my emotions in my head, thinking through my experience more than feeling which is why yoga is great for me. I will carry the lightness I feel in my head throughout the day. Namaste.

My sides thank you.

Rachel is such a great guide and this will surely open your sides. She also gives options for beginner to advance yogis.

recovering from contracting covid and have been doing your videos to recuperate. Thank you for this

Super Stretches - soo good!

Oh wow! This class delivers as promised! Such incredible stretches. I love Rachel's classes. Thank you.

Absolutely fabulous class, Rachael. Love your soft spoken instructions. Side body feels so much better after this class. Thank you. Linda (Collingwood, on)

Thank you Rachel, I feel so open, I believe I can fly!

EXCELLENT class. I felt throughout that you were designing it just for me! Your classes often get energy moving into the little nooks and crannies that don't move otherwise. Thank you so much for your attention to detail and your invitations to go deeper. Namaste.

Although I enjoyed this class I got very confused in places. Sometimes we were doing exactly what Rachel was doing that is right leg bent and at others we were doing what she said but mirroring what she was doing. This made it very confusing if we looking at Rachel to see what she was doing but being told to do the opposite.

Love this!!

Thank you! I had lung surgery in January and have been looking for a good stretch/expansion practice for the scar tissue along my rib cage/side body/abs, to address the residual tightness. And obviously for my breath! I think this will help immensely. It also gets at the historical tightness in my left hip. Yow! Good stuff!

Thank you! I've missed you. This was lovely, my body thanks you too.

Hey Rachel! Thanks for this class! My mode of transportation is biking and it felt so good stretching out my side body, I think I might have grown an inch! :D

Rachel always provides detailed instructions which are so beneficial so I can get the most out of a pose/class.
This class was definitely a "feel good" practice and it is interesting how the various poses provide many ways to get into the side body to stretch and length it. You won't be disappointed.

Another class I'll do regularly. All those good pops, cracks from the excellent spine, side and butt stretches. YUM.
When the instructors say "go from thinking to feeling", for me it's the tap on the shoulder to shut my busy little mind cabinets, be in my body, and get ready to feel the yoga.
Thank you Rachel, thank you Do Yoga With Me!

Great Class!
The one thing I keep noticing is Rachel and other teachers keep suggesting: Change from thinking to feeling.
That doesn't work for me and makes me feel irritated ha-ha, since it's rather sensing the body. Feelings are emotions...
Thanks!
